Optoelectronics integration by transfer process

ABSTRACT

A method for fabricating an optoelectronic device includes forming an adhesion layer on a substrate, forming a material layer on the adhesion layer and applying release tape to the material layer. The substrate is removed at the adhesion layer by mechanically yielding the adhesion layer. A conductive layer is applied to the material layer on a side opposite the release tape to form a transfer substrate. The transfer substrate is transferred to a target substrate to join the target substrate to the conductive layer of the transfer substrate. The release tape is removed from the material layer to form a top emission optoelectronic device.

BACKGROUND

1. Technical Field

The present invention relates to semiconductor processing, and moreparticularly to fabricating light emitting diodes using a transferprocess to reduce processing time, increase transmissibility and improveperformance.

2. Description of the Related Art

Top emission organic light emitting diodes (OLED) are typicallyfabricated with a top electrode formed using a vacuum process. Topemission OLEDs with a high transmission top electrode for lightout-coupling are difficult to fabricate since the vacuum processes oftenlead to surface damage on the top electrode. This surface damage has animpact on the transmissibility of the top electrode. In addition, vacuumprocesses tend to be time consuming, which increases expense. Further,since vacuum processes provide materials on bottom or underlying layers,the type of materials selected are limited due to material compatibilityissues.

Examples of vacuum processes described below suffer from additionaldrawbacks. For example, sputtering deposition can significantly damagethe underlying layer or layers on which the sputtered material isformed. Humidity during an atomic layer deposition (ALD) process canlead to a degradation in the properties of existing layers. Chemicaldeposition processes can cause additional unwanted reactions with theexisting layers. Evaporation processes take a long time to introduce amultilayer structure, and also reduce the transmission for transparentconducting electrodes.

Even solution processes top electrodes, such as, solution processedtransparent conductive oxides (TCO) can degrade the transmissibility ofthe top electrode. Such processes also require high temperatureannealing, which limits the material alternatives for the bottom layers,to achieve good conductivity.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

In accordance with the present principles, methods and devices areprovided that improve manufacturability and performance of electronicdevices, and in particular top electrode light emission devices. Inaccordance with the present embodiments, a top electrode is protectedfrom the significant damage by the elimination of a vacuum process forits integration in the device. Reduced damage provides a highertransmission top electrode. In addition, due to the processing features,a greater number of material selection options are available forsubstrate and underlying layer materials. This includes the use ofdifferent transparent conductors and/or opaque substrates.Multiple/stacking structures and complicated layers can be manufacturedwithout damage to underlying structures or devices. By employing wafertransfer (soft) processing, the fabrication time of the top electrodesis reduced over the fabrication times needed by vacuum methods.

It is to be understood that the present principles will be described interms of a given illustrative architecture having described wafers orsubstrates; however, other architectures, structures, substratematerials and process features and steps may be varied within the scopeof the present invention.

It will also be understood that when an element such as a layer, regionor substrate is referred to as being “on” or “over” another element, itcan be directly on the other element or intervening elements may also bepresent. In contrast, when an element is referred to as being “directlyon” or “directly over” another element, there are no interveningelements present. It will also be understood that when an element isreferred to as being “connected” or “coupled” to another element, it canbe directly connected or coupled to the other element or interveningelements may be present. In contrast, when an element is referred to asbeing “directly connected” or “directly coupled” to another element,there are no intervening elements present.

A design for an integrated circuit chip or individual components, inaccordance with the present principles, may be created in a graphicalcomputer programming language, and stored in a computer storage medium(such as a disk, tape, physical hard drive, or virtual hard drive suchas in a storage access network). If the designer does not fabricatechips or the photolithographic masks used to fabricate chips, thedesigner may transmit the resulting design by physical means (e.g., byproviding a copy of the storage medium storing the design) orelectronically (e.g., through the Internet) to such entities, directlyor indirectly. The stored design is then converted into the appropriateformat (e.g., GDSII) for the fabrication of photolithographic masks,which typically include multiple copies of the chip design in questionthat are to be formed on a wafer. The photolithographic masks areutilized to define areas of the wafer (and/or the layers thereon) to beetched or otherwise processed.

Methods as described herein may be used in the fabrication of integratedcircuit chips or individual components. The resulting integrated circuitchips can be distributed by the fabricator in raw wafer form (that is,as a single wafer that has multiple unpackaged chips), as a bare die, orin a packaged form. In the latter case the chip is mounted in a singlechip package (such as a plastic carrier, with leads that are affixed toa motherboard or other higher level carrier) or in a multichip package(such as a ceramic carrier that has either or both surfaceinterconnections or buried interconnections). In any case, the chip isthen integrated with other chips, discrete circuit elements, and/orother signal processing devices as part of either (a) an intermediateproduct, such as a motherboard, or (b) an end product. The end productcan be any product that includes integrated circuit chips, ranging fromtoys and other low-end applications to advanced computer products havinga display, a keyboard or other input device, and a central processor.The present embodiments may be employed in or with photovoltaic devices,photo sensors, photodiodes or other optoelectronic components orcircuits.

This may be extended, as readily apparent by one of ordinaryskill in this and related arts, for as many items listed.

Referring now to the drawings in which like numerals represent the sameor similar elements and initially to FIG. 1, a substrate or wafer 20 isprovided on which a weak adhesion layer 22 is deposited. The substrate20 may include any suitable substrate material and preferably includesmonocrystalline Si, although other substrate materials such as III-Vmaterials (e.g., GaAs, GaN, GaP, InP, etc.), Ge, SiGe, SiC, ceramics,plastics, glass, or other smooth materials with low adhesive propertieswhen employed with the weak adhesion layer 22.

The weak adhesion layer 22 includes a lowest adhesion energy of a stackof materials that will be formed on the weak adhesion layer 22. The weakadhesion layer 22 may include a metal, such as gold, silver, copper, andmetals of light and heavy platinum metal triad of elements (e.g., light:ruthenium, rhodium, palladium; heavy: osmium, iridium, platinum),graphene, carbon nanotubes, etc. In a particularly useful embodiment,weak adhesion layer 22 includes gold having a thickness of between 5 nmand 20 nm, and more preferably about 10 nm.

The weak adhesion layer 22 materials provide poor adhesion with thesubstrate 20 and are preferably thermally stable for a transferringtemperature, e.g., between about 80 to 120° C. and preferably around100° C. Other temperatures may also be employed, but lower temperaturesare preferred.

Referring to FIG. 2, a material layer 24 is applied over the weakadhesion layer 22. The material layer 24 may include any material usefulfor the formation of a photoelectronic device. The material layer 24 mayinclude a layer patterned for the formation of device structures, mayinclude an active layer employed in the overall device structure and/ormay include a transparent conductor (TC) including, e.g., a transparentconductive oxide (TCO), etc. In a particularly useful embodiment, thematerial layer 24 includes a TC applied on top of the weak adhesionlayer 22. The application of the material layer 24 may be provided by anepitaxially grown layer or may be adhered to a surface of the weakadhesion layer 22 by a wafer transfer process.

In one embodiment, the material layer 24 will be employed as a topelectrode layer for a light emitting diode and may include a transparentconductor. The transparent conductor may include tin oxide, zinc oxide,titanium oxide, aluminum-doped zinc oxide, indium doped zinc oxide,fluorine doped tin oxide, tin doped indium oxide, antimony doped tinoxide, indium tin oxide, etc. In addition, a composite metal oxide filmwith or without carbon nanotubes, graphene, metallic nanowires or ametallic grid may also be formed on the material layer 24.

Material layer 24 may include a multilayer structure or device structureon top of the weak adhesion layer 22 or may include a TC layer with oneor more additional layers formed thereon. The TC materials employed forlayer 24 should have good conductivity, good light transmission, and bethermally stable for a transferring temperature around 100° C. (e.g.,80-120° C.), although other temperatures are contemplated.

Referring to FIG. 3, a thermal release tape 26 or a handle substrate isapplied on top of the material layer 24. The thermal release tape 26 isan adhesive tape that adheres securely, but can be peeled off easilywith the application of heat.

Referring to FIG. 4, the thermal release tape 26 is mechanically peeledoff to split the whole structure to remove the substrate or wafer 20.The split occurs at the weak adhesion layer 22. The weak adhesion layer22 is now exposed and can be further processed. For example, the weakadhesion layer 22 may be etched, textured, patterned, etc. or removed asdepicted in FIG. 5. In one embodiment, if the weak adhesion layer 22includes gold, and a gold etchant is optionally employed to clean thesurface or to remove the gold completely.

Referring to FIG. 6, the layers 24 and 26 have a transparent conductorlayer 28 formed thereon. In this embodiment, the weak adhesion layer 22has been removed from layer 24, e.g., by an etching or polishingprocess. Layer 24 may include a top electrode as will later bedescribed. The layer(s) 24 may include a transparent conductor (TC) andin particular may include a transparent conductive oxide (TCO), such aszinc oxide, indium tin oxide, etc. The layer or layers 28 may betransferred to layer 24 using. e.g., a wafer transfer process ordeposited on layer 24.

The layer 28 may include, e.g., organic materials formed on thetransparent conductor 24 or other layer or layers. Since the transparentconductor 24 is formed first, the sensitive material of the layer 28 isnot subjected to its processing. The transparent conductor 24 mayinclude indium tin oxide, or other transparent materials as described.Layer 28 may include an organic transparent conductor, such as e.g.,PEDOT:PSS or poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)poly(styrenesulfonate).PEDOT:PSS is a polymer mixture of two ionomers. One component in thismixture is made up of sodium polystyrene sulfonate, which is asulfonated polystyrene. Part of the sulfonyl groups are deprotonated andcarry a negative charge. The other componentpoly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) or PEDOT is a conjugated polymer andcarries positive charge and is based on polythiophene. Together thecharged macromolecules form a macromolecular salt, which is used as atransparent, conductive polymer with high ductility. The PEDOT:PSS canform a molecular bond with OLED materials. Other materials are alsocontemplated.

Referring to FIG. 7, the layer 28 may include any layer or layers ofmaterial that are sensitive to conventional processing, e.g., sensitiveto high temperatures, ion bombardment, etc. By transferring a transfersubstrate (e.g., the layers 24 and 28) to a target substrate 30, thetarget substrate 30 is not subjected to the processing of layers 24 and26, and the layers 24 and 26 are not subjected to the processing of thetarget substrate 30. In a particularly useful embodiment, the targetsubstrate 30 includes structures for light emission, such as for a lightemitting diode (LED), and in particular, an organic LED (OLED). In oneexample, the target substrate 30 includes a substrate layer 32 having anelectron injection layer 34 and a hole generation layer 36 formedthereon. In one embodiment, the substrate layer 32 may include aconductive material such as Al or other metal.

The electron injection layer 34 may include, e.g., organometallicchelates (for example, tris(8-hydroxyquinoline)aluminum (Alq₃),fluorescent and phosphorescent dyes and conjugated dendrimers. The holegeneration layer 36 may include charge transport materials such as, forexample triphenylamine and derivatives, e.g.,N,N′-di(naphthalene-1-yl)-N,N′-diphenyl-benzidine (NPB). Fluorescentdyes may also be employed to obtain light emission at differentwavelengths, and compounds such as perylene, rubrene and quinacridonederivatives may be employed. Alq₃ may be employed as a green emitter,electron transport material and as a host for yellow and red emittingdyes.

It should be noted that while OLED materials and organic heterojunctiondevices are particularly useful, other LED structures and materials(including inorganic) may be employed for the target substrate andbenefit from the present principles.

The conductive organic layer 28 is brought into contact with the targetsubstrate 30 and adhered thereto, e.g., by molecular bonding. Theadherence may be achieved through pressure, heat, chemical reaction,adhesive bonding, cold welding, etc. depending on the materials and theapplication. In one embodiment, the conductive layer 28 may includePEDOT:PSS, and a molecular bond is formed between the layers 28 and 30.Vacuum processing is avoided on the surface of the organic conductivelayer 28 to improve device function.

Referring to FIG. 8, the thermal release tape 26 is removed by heatingthe tape 26 to its release temperature to release the tape 26. Thisleaves the materials or device structures layer 24 exposed. Thematerials or device structures layer 24 may include TCO and may beetched or otherwise cleaned to provide a pristine anode or top electrodesurface.

Referring to FIG. 9, an OLED 42 is composed of layers of organicmaterials situated between two electrodes 24, 32 (the anode andcathode). A highest occupied and lowest unoccupied molecular orbitals(HOMO and LUMO) of organic semiconductors are analogous to the valenceand conduction bands of inorganic semiconductors. During operation ofthe OLED 42, a voltage 40 is applied across the electrodes 32 and 24 ofthe OLED 42 such that the anode is positive with respect to the cathode.

Anodes are picked based upon the quality of their optical transparency,electrical conductivity, and chemical stability. A current of electronsflows through the device from cathode to anode, as electrons areinjected into the LUMO of the organic layer at the cathode and withdrawnfrom the HOMO at the anode (e.g., the injection of electron holes intothe HOMO). Electrostatic forces bring the electrons and the holestowards each other and they recombine forming an exciton, a bound stateof the electron and hole. The decay of this excited state results in arelaxation of the energy levels of the electron, accompanied by emissionof radiation whose frequency is in the visible region. The frequency ofthis radiation depends on the band gap of the material, in this case thedifference in energy between the HOMO and LUMO.

Indium tin oxide (ITO) may be employed as the anode material, and istransparent to visible light and has a high work function, whichpromotes injection of holes into the HOMO level of the organic layer.The conductive layer 24 or 28 may include PEDOT:PSS as the HOMO level ofthis material generally lies between the work function of ITO and theHOMO of other polymers, reducing the energy barriers for hole injection.Metals such as barium and calcium are often used for the cathode as theyhave low work functions, which promote injection of electrons into theLUMO of the organic layer. Such metals are reactive, so a capping layerof aluminum may be employed to avoid degradation.

As described, different processing methods may be employed to fabricateOLEDs or other optoelectronic devices. In some embodiments, multiple,tandem or stacked device structures can be made by single transferringor multiple transferring to provide multicolor LED devices in a stackedstructure. Further modification of the transferred top layers canimprove the light out-coupling, e.g., by increasing purity, increasingsmoothness, decreasing thickness, etc. High performance transparentOLEDs or LEDs can be provided in accordance with the present principlesby designing the energy band alignment of each material/layer. Opticalup-conversion or down-conversion materials can be embedded into thetransferred layer or layers to achieve high performance devices.

The properties of the anode (layer 24, 28), specifically the anode tohole transport layer (HTL) 36 interface topography plays a significantrole in the efficiency, performance and lifetime of organic lightemitting diodes. Imperfections in the surface of the anode decreaseanode-organic film interface adhesion, increase electrical resistance,and allow for more frequent formation of non-emissive dark spots in theOLED material. This adversely affects OLED lifetime. By joining theanode 28 with the HTL 36 using a wafer transfer process, damage at thisinterface is kept to a minimum or is eliminated altogether. This greatlyimproves OLED performance.

Referring to FIG. 10A, an image 102 shows an opaque bottom electrode 104and a transferred top electrode 106 made in accordance with the presentprinciples. A characteristic curve 112 shows current (A) versus voltage(V) for the device with the transferred electrode on the opaque bottomelectrode/substrate 104.

Referring to FIG. 10B, an image 122 shows a transparent bottom electrode124 and a transferred top electrode 126 made in accordance with thepresent principles. A characteristic curve 132 shows current (A) versusvoltage (V) for the device with the transferred electrode on thetransparent bottom electrode/substrate 124.

Referring to FIG. 11, a method for fabricating a photoelectronic deviceis shown in accordance with illustrative embodiments. It should be notedthat, in some alternative implementations, the functions noted in theblocks may occur out of the order noted in the figures. For example, twoblocks shown in succession may, in fact, be executed substantiallyconcurrently, or the blocks may sometimes be executed in the reverseorder, depending upon the functionality involved. It will also be notedthat each block of the block diagrams and/or flowchart illustration, andcombinations of blocks in the block diagrams and/or flowchartillustration, can be implemented by special purpose hardware-basedsystems that perform the specified functions or acts, or combinations ofspecial purpose hardware and computer instructions.

In block 202, an adhesion layer is formed on a substrate. The adhesionlayer may include forming a layer of one or more of: gold, silver,copper, platinum, graphene, carbon nanotubes, etc. In block 204, amaterial layer is formed on the adhesion layer. The material layer mayinclude forming one or more of a transparent conductor or a multi-layerstructure for forming an electrode of the optoelectronic device. In oneembodiment, the material layer and the conductive layer form a topelectrode for the optoelectronic device. The optoelectronic device mayinclude an organic light emitting diode.

In block 206, release tape is applied to the material layer. In block206, the substrate is removed at the adhesion layer by mechanicallysplitting or yielding the adhesion layer. In block 210, a conductivelayer is applied to the material layer on a side opposite the releasetape to form a transfer substrate. In one embodiment, the material layermay include a transparent conductor, the conductive layer may include anorganic conductor, and the target substrate may include a hole injectionlayer.

In block 212, the transfer substrate is transferred to a targetsubstrate to join the target substrate to the conductive layer of thetransfer substrate. The target substrate includes light emitting layersfor the optoelectronic device and the target substrate is preferablyformed independently of the transfer substrate. In this way, thesensitive light emitting layers are formed in a separate process fromthe top electrode layers to avoid damage to the light emitting layers,and the top electrode layers are formed in a separate process from thelight emitting layers to prevent damage from the processing of the lightemitting layers. An interface between the transfer substrate and thetarget substrate may be heat bonded or chemically bonded. The interfacebetween the transferred layer and the target substrate may be formedbased on molecular bonding, for example, PEDOT:PSS forms a molecularbond with OLED materials.

In block 214, the release tape is removed from the material layer toform a top emission optoelectronic device. Additional steps may beperformed to complete the device or devices.
